My 2009 film, Yellow Cake was also uploaded to the web in the early days of streaming, so the video that exists is in SD format. Content-wise, it's funny/sad how it's still pretty relevant. So, I decided to do a 'remastered' HD release. youtu.be/8YCQEQfhAQM

I’m working on a new indy film project where I’m animating without a plan, script or storyboard one scene at a time and posting my progress as I go. You can follow my progress on Instagram and Tiktok… IG—> nicodemuscross TikTok—-> nickcross45

The Aardman animated stop-motion short for the Over the Garden Wall 10th anniversary is out today. It’s cool they used one of my concept pieces I made early on in the production of the series that was never used.

2 DAYS LEFT!! Nick & Marlo are incredible talents and this 380 page book is nothing short of a classic in the making. It’s the sort of book at inspires me to make comics and a challenge to level up my game - it’s that good. Follow @ncrossanimation and check out his animation!

One of Orchard of the Tame’s strongest features is Nick Cross’s amazing black and white illustrations. Sequences jump to life on the page and you instantly connect and empathize with the characters through clear and vivid expressions. kickstarter.com/projects/hal…
